  • Publication number: 20240177548
    Abstract: In one aspect of the present disclosure, a system and method are provided for pairing a network-enabled movable barrier operator with a transmitter. The method may include receiving a pairing request, retrieving a hashed version of the transmitter fixed code, verifying access authorization, and forwarding the hashed version of the transmitter fixed code to a movable barrier operator to allow the movable barrier operator to determine whether a new transmitter is authorized to control the movable barrier operator.

  • Patent number: 11913169
    Abstract: A braided structure that includes a core and a sheath is provided. The core includes a yarn formed at least in part from an aromatic polymer (e.g., an aromatic polyester/liquid crystalline polymer or an aramid polymer), and the sheath, which includes a plurality of ultra high molecular weight polyolefin yarns, is braided around the core. The sheath has an overall diameter ranging from about 60 micrometers to about 650 micrometers. Despite its small diameter, the braided structure can be creep resistant and abrasion resistant while at the same time exhibiting low elongation, a high load at break, and high stiffness. The braided structure can be used in medical applications such as sutures, load bearing orthopedic applications, artificial tendons/ligaments, fixation devices, actuation cables, components for tissue repair, etc.

  • Publication number: 20230339271
    Abstract: A hitch system for connecting a towed vehicle to a towing vehicle includes a hitch apparatus attached to the towing vehicle and a control system operably associated with the hitch apparatus. The hitch apparatus includes a frame movably secured to the towing vehicle, and a hitch member secured to the frame that is configured to receive a coupling apparatus of the towed vehicle. The frame is movable relative to the towing vehicle such that the hitch member can be positioned rearward of the towing vehicle at any location within a defined three-dimensional space. The frame is configured to maintain the hitch member in a substantially level orientation at all locations within the three-dimensional space. The control system is configured to move the hitch member to a desired location within the three-dimensional space.

  • Publication number: 20220165397
    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to a system and methods for registering a user with an online service. An application server receives, from a health care provider, first patient identifying information and second patient identifying information for a new account. The server transmits a message to the patient based on the second patient identifying information, the message including a unique access code for the patient. The server receives, from a client application via a secure link, a user access code and user identifying information. The server verifies that the user access code matches the unique access code and the user identifying information matches the first patient identifying information. The server requests, in response to the verifying, a new username and password via the client application. The server associates the new username and password with the new account, the online service, the first and second patient identifying information.

  • Publication number: 20220165390
    Abstract: Examples described herein generally relate to a system and methods for providing a digital therapeutic for treatment of psychological aspects of an oncological condition. The digital therapeutic may generate a user interface on a user device. The user interface includes a fictional health care provider avatar and plurality of fictional patient avatars. Each fictional patient avatar associated with a distinct patient archetype. The digital therapeutic may output a prompt from the fictional health care provider avatar. The digital therapeutic may output an avatar response to the prompt from at least one selected avatar of the plurality of fictional patient avatars based on the distinct patient archetype associated with the selected avatar. The digital therapeutic may receive, from the patient, a patient response to the prompt. The digital therapeutic may select a subsequent prompt or avatar response to output based on the patient response to the prompt.

  • Patent number: 10826366
    Abstract: A doubly fed brushless induction starter generator includes a stator and a rotor, which are separated by an air gap. The stator includes stator winding slots, each of which includes a first layer of power windings, a second layer of power windings, and a third layer of control windings, which include 2-pole single-phase windings. The control windings are arranged in the stator winding slots between the air gap and the first and second layers of power windings. Direct current is delivered to control windings in the generator as an excitation current to thereby produce a magnetic flux, through which the stator is moved to produce and alternating current in the power windings as an output current. The output current can be delivered to an electrical load, such as an electrical component on an aircraft.

  • Publication number: 20180250815
    Abstract: Exemplary methods, apparatuses, and systems receive first and second sets of command tracks, each set including one or more command tracks and each command track directed to control a component of a robot. In response to detecting that a first command track within the first set is directed to control a first component of the robot to perform a first action and a second command track within the second set is directed to control the first component of the robot to perform a second action, the first and second command tracks are merged into a composite command track. The composite command track is executed, causing the first component of the robot to perform the first action while performing the second action.

  • Patent number: RE48469
    Abstract: A fabric can comprise yarns comprising less than about 30 denier total and less than about 10 denier per filament; a density of greater than about 177 yarns per cm2; and a thickness of less than about 3.2 mil. The fabric can further comprises a weight of less than about 60 g/m2. The fabric can have performance characteristics equivalent to or greater than those in conventional implantable fabrics. A method of making such a fabric can include twisting together filaments into a multifilament yarn; passing adjacent yarns into a loom in parallel so as to allow the yarns to be woven together more closely; maintaining a consistent tension on the yarns during placement of the yarns on a loom beam and during weaving; and or subjecting the fabric to increased heat and pressure so as to compress the yarns more tightly.
